Three Wishes

A beautiful fairy appeared one day to a destitute Mexican refugee outside an Arizona immigration office.

"Good man," the fairy said, "I've been sent here by 

President Obama and told to grant you three wishes 

since you just arrived in the United States with 

your wife and eight children."

The man told the fairy, "Well, where I come from 

we don't have good teeth, so I want new teeth, 

maybe a lot of gold in them."

The fairy looked at the man's almost toothless grin 

and -- PING!-- he had a brand new shining set of 

gold teeth in his mouth! "What else?" 

asked the fairy, "Two more to go."

The refugee claimant now got bolder. "I need a big 

house with a three-car garage in Annapolis on the 

water with eight bedrooms for my family and the 

rest of my relatives who still live in my country. 

I want to bring them all over here" and PING! 

In the distance there could be seen a beautiful 

mansion with a three car garage, a long driveway, 

and a walkout patio with a BBQ in an upscale 

neighborhood over-looking the bay. "One more wish," 

said the fairy, waving her wand.

"Yes, one more wish. I want to be like an American 

with American clothes instead of these torn clothes, 

and a baseball cap instead of this sombrero. And I 

want to have white skin like Americans" ---and --- PING!

The man was transformed - wearing worn-out jeans, 

a Baltimore Orioles T-shirt, and a baseball cap. 

He had his bad teeth back and the mansion had 

disappeared from the horizon.

"What happened to my new teeth?" He wailed. 

"Where is my new house?"

The fairy said: "Tough shit, Amigo, now that you 

are a white American, you have to fend for yourself."
